Be Optimistic

Write me a poem about the light
About how strong you are despite
The challenges you face in life
When balances don’t seem right

Sing me a song about your hopes
How you cheer even when broke
No tears in beer nothing used like dope
Except music near as an antidote 

Paint me a picture with your heart
Light and airy with glee and spark
That could light the way in dark
Despite a day when life’s no park

Build me a sculpture full of desire
With your very own passion and fire
That’ll shine on in time in mind’s higher
Making one think and dream inspired 

Throw me a kiss in the white wind
For it I’d live in a little silver sin 
The kind that is always forgiven
In heart in mind in earth in heaven

Be optimistic in what you do
For I believe in me and I believe in you
